The Late Mr.. BeeCher's Friend
Rev. Joseph Parker, DID,.
Or LONDON, ENGLAND.

When the late Henry Ward Beecher
and his wife were in London last sum-
mer they were entertained by the Rev.
Joseph Parker, DID,, pastor of the City
Temple, Holborn Viaduct The two
eminent men had first met in New
York in 1873, at the session of the Evan
gelical Alliance. An affectionate in
timacy followed, and now Plymouth
Church recognizes the tried loyalty of
Mr.. Beecher's perhaps most cherished
friend, by inviting him to make the
Grafton at the memorial meeting to be
held shortly. While on his visit to
Brooklyn, DR. Parker will occupy the
pulpit of his deceased friend. It is
believed that an earnest effort will be
made to secure his services as Mr..
Beecher's successor.
DIR. Parker is somewhat past the
prime OF his years, but is in the best
of his extraordinary powers as public
teacher. As a local preacher in the
Wesleyan Methodist denomination,
when quite young man, he was SUI
perior, and became candidate for the
ministry of that body-unsuccessfully
however. Later he joined the Congrega-
tionalists, who gave him passionate.
The church at Banbury, Oxfordshire,
was his first charge, which he soon out
grew, and accepted call to Manches-
ter. In 1869 he went to London as the
minister at Poultry Chapel. When
that structure was removed to make
room for city improvements, the City
Temple was built for DR.. Parker, on
the then new thoroughfare, Holborn
Viaduct. One of the chief features Of
it's services, is the meeting for men
every Thursday at noon, which is at
tended by many ministers. 1t is said
that DIR. Parker breaches to more
ministers than any divine in the world.
Needless to add, that he leads in the
chief pulpit excellences. His visit
was one of the most notable features of
the Evangelical Alliance meeting of
1873, and the many friends he made
at that time will be delighted to see
him and to hear his eloquent voice

the moment.
$50 it is" replied Mr.. Roach, looking
at the boy in surprise, for he had forgotten
all about him. WHO are you?"
"Tm the boy who asked you if you
didn't want one"
"Ah, yes; but didn't say no ?''
Eyes, SIR"
"What have you been doing there P"
demanded the ship builder. seeing that
the boy had defaced the back of valua-
BILE drawing. though the little fellow had
no idea the sheet of paper had anything
on the under side.
Il was copying that drawing, sir; was
it any harm ?"
| Mr.. Roach, naturally kind hearted.
looked at the paper and saw that the boy
was good draughtsman for his age.
This and his familiarity with the multiple
cation table induced the ship builder
to make further inquiries, which
finally led to the boy being
given a place. He was sent to the engi-
neer's room, where his talents soon de-
veloped, and by the time he reached man.
hood Young "344," as Mr.. Roach humor-
ously called him, became thorough en-
gineer and is now famous naval design
er.
An office boy in the employ of maker
of models for inventors once sat by the
stove and listened to a customer describe
machine he wished made. The machin-
ist examined the drawings and saw de-
feet which would defeat the end in view.
Being an honest man he called attention
to the fact, and suggested further study.
The inventor laid down his plans in dis
gust. and remarking that he would call
for them, went away. Being idle for the
moment the boy took the drawings and
examined them. When the inventor came
back the boy was alone.
Il wonder how can get over the diff
cultyp'' said the man to himself, as he
glanced over the plans before putting them
in his pocket. 1.-The principle is correct
if can only adopt it,"
That's easy enough. sir" said the boy.
.'Eh ?"
''All you have to do is to lengthen the
arm Of your crank and so increase your
power"
1t was an inspiration, and thus one Of
the most important Improvements in steam
engines was decided by the discovery of
an office boy, who became noted inyen-
tor himself in after years.

SNOW IN CITIES.
The ~ stem of Snow-Melting Devised by "a
London Engineer.

When it is considered that a fall of
snow inches deep over mile of road
60 feet wide amounts to 1896 cubic
yards the impossibility of removing
it promptly by means Of horses and
carts j. at once apparent. The moro
50 when it is remembered that some
metropolitan vestries have from 30 to
100 miles of road, and thus have to deal
with from 300, 900 to 600. 600 cubic
yards of snow, assuming 4 t inch fail
to occur The principle of Mr.. Lyons
invention is that the snow can be dealt
with in the roads on which it falls
when it is in light and ileecy condi-
ton. and therefore easily melted. The
apparatus consists of wrOught-iron
tube about 81 feet long, having IA fur
mace at one end and Il short length of
vertical pipe for Il chimney at the other.
The tube is made in lengths of feet
and each length is tapered so that they
all fit into each other and are closely
packed for transport on wheels. When
fall of snow occurs the apparatus is
TO be laid along the cutters of the roads
to be cleared, the width occupied being
about four feet. \ fire is then to be
lighted i'll the furnace, the heat from
which will pass along the horizontal
tube, which has flatly arched top. The
snow is then to be shovelcd on to the
heated tube, which will melt it, the re-
sulting water flowing away to the near
est gully. A trial of this apparatus
took place in the st. Marylebone dis
trict on some snow which had fallen
long previously and had been twice
carried. Notwithstanding the solidified
condition of the snow and the imper-
feet condition of the experimental APP
paratus, it is stated that twenty -one
yards of the consolidated snow, weigh
ing 10 tons. cwt, 3 qrs., equal to 1913
yards of freshly fallen snow, were melt
ed in ten hours, with consumption Of
coke of the value of l shilling pence,
or under II pence per ton.-London
Times.

WORTH KNOWING.
The Light in Which the Law Regards
Ante-Mortem Statements.


Ante-Mortem Statements.
This is what lawyer said - me to-day
about ante-mortem statements: Il am
constantly surprised at the ignorance of
the police, and of others whose ignorance
is less eXcusable, on the subject of ante
mortem statements. A man receives a
mortal wound and it is desired to preserve
his evidence for use on the trial of the
murderer, and you find all sorts of blunders
committed about the simplest thing in the
world. j have not known an ante-mortem
statement to be taken here in years with
out summoning justice of the peace and
having the dying man sworn. Now, that
is all nonsense. An ante norton state
mant is, at law, a well-knOwn exception to
the rule that evidence must be sworn.
There is also great care taken to write it
out, which is a wise precautions; but it
ought to be well understood that even that
is not necessary 10 its admission in evil
dence. The one thing that is necessary is
that the wounded man should say that he
makes the statement under the impression
that he will not recover; and this is the
very point that least attention is paid to.
1t is also great blunder to postpone the
writing out of the statement until the dy-
ing man feels that he will not recover.
The facts may all be written out before he
begins to sink, and when his mind is
stronger; and then when he feels that he
is dying he has only to say that he believes
he will never recover, and that he reiter-
ates his former statement. The States at
torney ought to print tract ON this sub
ject for the use of policemen and Others"
